Abstract

There are currently three databases supported by three different commands that collect and output similar ASW information; PACER, AIREM, and SHAREM. These databases contain initial detection data, tracking data, environmental data, system performance data, and weapon performance data. This thesis investigates the commonalities and differences in structure and content of the three databases and examines the feasibility of integrating PACER, AIREM and SHAREM into a single database. The benefits of this database integration are a more comprehensive utilization of data, reduced data collection for fleet users, and a standardization of how the data is analyzed
